Anybody here into SciFi and Fantasy?
Some of the stuff I can recommend:
The "Temeraire" series by Naomi Novik - an alternate history series in which the Napoleonic wars were fought with dragons. It sounds wacky but is actually pretty good, with engaging characters, a great love of details, some very interesting plots (especially if you are bit interested in military history) and it also probes into some deeper philosophic stuff.
The legendaryy "Culture" series by Iain M. Banks - start with "Consider Phlebas".
The "Dread Empire's Fall" trilogy by Walter Jon Williams - military SciFi at it's finest.
The"Vorkosigan" series by Lois McMaster Bujold, with one of the most memorable and amusing heroes in SciFi.
"Revelation Space" by Alastair Reynolds - modern space opera on the grandest of scales.
